Reece James starts for Chelsea this afternoon as Graham Potter’s side resumes the Premier League campaign at home to Bournemouth.
The Blues went into the World Cup break in poor form. Yet the six-week break has given Potter an opportunity to reassess and re-evaluate. The hope is that Chelsea will be much improved during the second half of the season.
With both Edouard Mendy and Kepa Arrizabalaga fit, there was a difficult decision for Potter and his staff to make as to who started in goal for the Blues. They have settled upon Kepa, who is likely to remain first choice going forward this term.
